Cannot login to account even after changing password

Post by bpotter »

I'm using version 2.9.8

I have a username that I am unable to log in with. I have manually reset the password the for the username and I have also used "forgot password" to get a new password.

When I attempt to log in with the username and new password I see this message:

"Wrong login name or password."

I cannot figure out what is wrong or how to log in.

I can confirm I am also having the same issue under exactly the same circumstances.

I had to get around the problem by deleting the user and adding again.

I faced the same problem and deleting the user and adding a new one helped me solved the problem.

I found that deleting the user and re-adding them was also a "solution", but it is a terrible solution. Actually, it's not a solution at all. This needs a hotfix right away. I can't just go deleting users and losing associations/data because a password mysteriously won't work. Or even worse, setting a NEW password that doesn't work either. What is the real solution?

Nope ... 2.9.9 password reset brings the same message after attempt to login with the new password :-(

How can i change the password manually in the DB or exists a other way to fix it ?
